Let's share everyone's tips in the big Cups Trifecta and see who wins ?
Cox Plate - Winx (unbeatable)
Caulfield Cup - Humidor
Melbourne Cup - too early, I want to see the races leading up to it first, Amelies Star looks good
Its interesting that the three best horses of the modern era are all mares.
Makybe Diva - best long distance
Winx - best middle distance
Black Caviar - best sprinter.
Sakio The Scorpion Bika headlines a big card at Sydney Star Casino this Sunday.
However the fight which should be a cracker is Kris George vs Jack Brubaker for
the Commonwealth and OPBF Welterweight Title.
Lucas Big Daddy Browne is headed to Russia for a almighty challenge with Sergey
Kuzmin on Nov 27. Kuzmin is 11 - 0 8 ko and a tank.
I fear Kuzmin will ko Browne.
And for the MMA aficionado's watch out for Mackenzie Dern .
She is a 24 yr old Jiu Jitsu phenom and prodigy.
She ended Gaby Garcia 7 yr underdefeated run in JJ in 2015.
Former UFC Lightweight Champion and stablemate Benson Henderson rated her
as potentially better than Rhonda Rousey.
Everyone should hold your bets on the Caulfield Cup until tomorrow and see what the weather is like. Thunderstorms are expected in Melbourne today but clear on Friday and Saturday. Not sure if the heaven would really open up and give us a soft track .
If there are enough rain, the Murray Baker pair of Jon Snow and Bonneval will be very hard to beat. That is if Bonneval can get over its lameness and cleared by the Stewards !
Ventura storm and Amelie's star for me
It was meant to be an easy pick for Bonneval if she would have won the Caulfield Stakes last week. Then you just throw in her stablemate Jon Snow, the two Weir horses and the two Hayes imports for the minor placings.
But something had gone wrong with her and now even she was pass fit to race, I just lost some confidence.
And from what I saw on Johannes Vermeer, he was closing in real fast at the end of the 2,000 metres and looked like a good thing !
So here's my Trifecta bet:
1st : 3, 11
2nd : 1, 3, 4, 7, 11, 15, 16
3rd: the field
$180 for the one unit
Or you can box the 7 horses for $210
Good luck everyone
Cheers
im going lord fandango and single gaze. I like the underdog
1.Bonneval
2.Jon Snow
3.Amelies Star
What a fkn incredible rugby test. So glad/relieved we won but it was one fkn gutsy effort. Well done Wallabies.
Congratulations to David Hayes, winning his third Caulfield Cup with Boom Time, a horse he also personally owns out right !
That's a cool $1.5 million owners cheque going his way.
O Heather .
Why Why ?
Stick to boxing.
Kristina Williams i think i love you.

Anyone even notice that we have a Rugby League World Cup starting this week ?
I'm only asking all you League fans of course.
And how on earth did Channel 7 get the broadcast?
It's just not the same without the commentary from Ray Warren, Sterlo, Guts and all the usual Immortals !
Women's Ashes update:
In the second ODIs , the Aussie girls are 3/246, in the 45th over, 4 of the top 5 girls have made 50's
Looking good !
Haynes just took Brunt to the cleaners in the last over for 21:
2, 4, 4 (dropped), 6, 4, 1
She is on 81 (49 balls)
Tiny girl but so much power !
